Why was BreatheX designed in a pillow?
Leslie Hoffman, creator of the BreatheX, wanted to design a CPAP machine that addressed some of the common shortcomings of traditional hard shell box machines. He wanted to design a CPAP that could go anywhere without requiring converters, external batteries, or long tubes. Ultimately, he wanted to design a CPAP that was more in line with the lifestyle of the user and one that blended in with the sleeping environment.
